The most important thing a citizen warrior like you can do to help defeat orthodox Islam is to educate and persuade everyone in your circle of influence. Educating and persuading is sometimes delicate business, and the people you talk to may have pre-existing reasons to reject your point of view before you even finish your first sentence. Because of this, it helps if you think in terms of small tidbits of information. A little at a time. And over a long time.

Opinions are usually changed slowly. Over many months, a person can completely change their opinion about something. But an opinion is almost never changed in an argument. In fact, one of the best ways to make someone a passionate believer in what they already believe is to make a really good argument against their opinion, mercilessly attacking it with facts.

But a few interesting facts here and there, casually delivered, interestingly presented, can alter a person's opinion over time without them ever thinking they've been influenced. As far as they are concerned, they changed their own opinion, and that's the best result you can have.

This makes your task much easier than trying to argue with people, or getting into heated debates. All you have to concern yourself with is what interesting fact you can share today.

You get into brief conversations with people all the time. Often they ask you, "What's new?" These are perfect opportunities to mention an interesting tidbit. "I was just reading a book last night by this lady who disguised herself as a Muslim and filmed secret terrorist meetings right here in America. You know what she found?"

Something like that makes a person curious. She or he will want to know more. Or, if not, no big deal. You've planted a little seed.

I've often started great conversations with people by saying something like, "I was reading a book on Muhammad yesterday and I'm totally surprised about something. Muhammad is not like any religious founder I've ever heard of. Did you know he once ordered a Jewish rabbi to be tortured for information about where the rabbi hid some jewels? Or that he personally ordered the beheading of 600 captives? It's amazing! Can you imagine Buddha or Jesus doing something like that?"

It's a tidbit. It often gets a good conversation going. And even if not, you've added a small bit of information that can change an opinion over time, or make someone more open to information in the future — information s/he might have deliberately refused to accept before.

Think in terms of what is interesting. What is surprising? Find good stories that will be interesting for people to hear.

While you're reading or listening to audiobooks or watching DVDs, look for juicy tidbits you can share. Even write them down. Think small. Find something you can say in a couple sentences. Ideally your conversations would be driven by the other person's curiosity. Say something very short and interesting, and let them ask you more about it.

If you have conversations like this with people, over time, some of them will come to think differently about Jihad and about concessions to Islam. You've just added a new voter who is no longer fooled by religious deception (taqiyya).

As you do this, when you find a good, juicy tidbit people really respond to, come back here and add it to the comments on this page. Let's get a good collection we can all use. What tidbits work the best for you?

I pointed out to people in a room that if Islam got its way in our country, to picture the signs overhead of our highways, with 'us' hanging by our necks from them, just for being who we are. I think I got their attention with it. Vivid imagery of what our world would be like, the same images that we see from that world, I think, are the most vivid if you make people picture them happening here, and I know for sure that that's what got me thinking seriously about Islam and looking at it to discern if it was a threat for myself. I'm very thoroughly convinced.

That's excellent. If you do it in small enough pieces, and casually enough, they'll think they've come to the realization on their own, and that's the best way for it to happen. You don't get any credit, but you've done a really good thing for all of us.

The very first time I 'clued up' about Islam was (I clearly remember the place and time!) in my kitchen throwing out newspapers and there was an article saying Islam is not like all the other religions. It is a total all encompassing system of laws and legal rules that are part of it and can't be separated.' It was as simple as that for me and I have accrued more info as I've read more over time.

I got a positive result from telling a teacher that Muslim fathers were keeping their daughters home from school and that when the teacher went round to the house to knock on the door and ask if all was ok the Muslim father refused to speak to her due to her being 1) female and 2) 'westernised.'

I've had a little success with religious people by challenging their idea of 'virtue'....the fact that God works in mysterious ways and yes we in the west may be drunk, may be sinners of all sorts, may be not prayerful...but we are sure have good hearts and we don't have to flaunt it by praying on street corners using mats....God works in mysterious ways and there is the song 'amazing grace'...

I told someone that the local school brought the Koran in for the grade 5/6s to study...that got a few ears up! I simply said 'well why just the Koran ? Why don't Buddhists and other religions get taught too? That doesn't seem fair.....' That seemed to get a good response! Even the hard as nails 'compassion for all' types said 'well that is a bit much the Koran...'

I find that I need to verbally boost myself by clearly stating to churchy types 'I can hold my head up and i believe I'm doing the right thing.' This gives me a confidence boost when the 'compassion' wolves stare at me in church or a school authority lectures about welcoming Muslim immigrants. We need to bolster ourselves up against the demeaning effects of dhimmitude.

Lastly I find if a school will not listen and if they are almost secretive about promoting Muslim immigrants to kids, a small mention of helpful journalists like Rita Panahi or the herald sun being interested in the details can help immensely! Watch them scatter and run for their lives...they'll leave in droves in case their reputation is tarnished!

I find some people respond to the idea that 'well that's not fair or sensitive to Buddhists example : teachers pushing abcs BTN series about the Muslim/Buddhists fighting in Burma (see btn website and archives of Muslim asylum seekers) and the bias to Muslims. It works very well if the school has Buddhist families to be sensitive to also.

Let's Help Each Other

Take the Pledge

Some people say Islam is a religion of peace and that Islam has been hijacked by extremists, terrorists, and stealth jihadists who twist and distort the peaceful teachings of the Quran and quote it out of context.

Others say that political, supremacist, and even violent teachings are fundamental to Islam, and that people who say otherwise either haven’t read the Quran or are protecting Islam with religious deception (taqiyya).

The general confusion about the nature of Islam makes us collectively unable to make informed decisions. You can help end this confusion by reading the Quran. Stop believing what other people say and find out for yourself.

Article Spotlight

It illustrates the Islamic Supremacist vision by showing the similarity between what happened in the movie, Pleasantville, and what devout fundamentalist Muslims are trying to create in Islamic states like Syria, Pakistan, or Saudi Arabia (and ultimately everywhere in the world).
